I notice how carefully you had to tread here to not actually talk about or discuss, brainstorm or theorize, what's going on - not sharing any specifics of your experience except that there is "something there."

And I understand why, it's because enough of a majority of people on HN aren't very open minded nor supportive of open discussing theory or anything unproven, so like where I briefly shared my thoughts here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21961032 - it quickly got -3 points, and deemed unacceptable for anyone else to chime in if they have similar thoughts or theories or experiences to share to add to a body of knowledge, even if mostly anecdotal.

Edit: Downvoted for sharing my observations of people's behaviour on HN? Brilliant.

I've been discussing these topics on HN for a long time. I've learned it's better to meet people where they're at than to demand people immediately leap to my place of understanding.

Interesting perspective that them simply reading something you wrote is demanding something of them - I suppose it could be taken that way if they take everything they read as wanting it to be their gospel. HN's downvote mechanism certainly reenforces you having to adjust vs. creating a better system for tolerance in discussion if you don't want your voice to be suppressed - which we all naturally do, perhaps unless we're depressed or don't believe our voice is worth being heard.
